Are you using a Debian package? ("peer" authentication is a non-standard
Debian addition to PostgreSQL. It has been adopted in 7.2 but reworked
and renamed as "ident".)

If so, please let me know the package version and let me see your
pg_hba.conf file.

Unfortunately, I can't at the moment think of any reason why it should
behave differently when passed though the Perl interface.
